Size always matters--lol--with marbles and an ID. Veiligglas marbles come in a variety of sizes that I will defer to @Mojo for. Marble--On!!

I am burning money right now Fire but I think that you are right on--next FB for sure. Marble--On!!

Pretty cool Mojo!! Marble--On!!

This is what the folks playing on the show "Survivor" practice with😁. Marble--On!!

Not a Master William. Image one and image ten show blow out holes-- from production---not too common in a Master Made Marble--or a Master Glass Marble. Not really too common in a Vitro either for that matter--but more so imho. (Maybe its a Pelt)---not. Marble--On!!

This may be hard for anyone to believe—but—Chad’s marble and mine may be from the same production run, not the same run of colors—just the same run. The machines/ovens kept running until they broke down for whatever reason. Production was never stopped to change size or colors--- back then at least—and more than likely now as well. “Keep them running” is in the mind of any production team. Color changes and variations are more common than anyone may think. The rollers kept rolling, the furnace gases kept cooking, the workers kept working and the colors were bound to change over time—until something broke. This was a time for a size/color changeover, when it broke or wore out—not during production. It was not about “pretty marbles” so much as it was about keeping cost’s low. The lucky few of us that have nice “Hybrid” Pelts or other makers may understand this a bit better. All companies did this and this is why all companies have some very weird and rare marbles. Some of the manufacturers had quality control that picked these crossovers out better than others—some just let them go. These posted are mostly Akro and they sure as heck could have come from the same “Run”. I call them “Uniques” but there is nothing unique about them. Just my thoughts--- Marble—On!!

Love the lashes Chad---I will call your lashes and raise--lol Marble--On!!

Yep---

we see them like we see them--nuff said. We will always Marble--On!!

KILLER patch! Marble--On!!

Intriguing marble for sure Flowerangel8. Take it into natural sunlight and let nature reveal it to us—no flash imho. Marble—On!!

I agree—pretty common swirls that many companies made. Check # 4 for any UV reaction—it may be a Pelt imho. The other two (#1 and #2) may also have some UV reaction—probably Akro imho. Keep on keeping on and you will get it eventually. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more— Marble—On!!

#1 may be a swirl--#3 is probably a Pelt--- #5 looks to be"handgathered"--maybe a MFC. The rest are more than likely Akro imho. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more-- Marble--On!!

Whisplers--agreed! Marble--On!!

I agree with "Whispler". Marble--On!!

Hmm-consider Vacor "Blue Jay". Marble--On!!

I am seeing Jabo here--lets get @Nantucketdink involved. Marble--On!!

Wow--how do you make a round marble look flat?? There are plenty of "dug" Germans in the market--your first may be one--it does not look like "Play wear" to me. The second one is --well--pretty nice looking. Marble--On!!

I do not see any AV--some bubbles may fool you. I would sort this one as a Vacor "Twister". Nice marble! Marble--On!!

Consider Champion here----- Marble--On!!

Vacor imho. The first one looks like a “Jupiter” that has not been “frosted”. The second one looks like an “Arctic Bear” that has not been” frosted”. The names are unknown to me but I am getting Vacor vibes for sure. @Mojo and @Melissa may be able to straighten me out here. Marble--On!!

I agree that except for the last image—all are “Whisplers”. Good call Fire!! Marble—On!!

This one is either Chinese or a very bad version of some Vacor make. I am seeing frit or little pieces of glass that were intended to be on the outside of the marble. Marble—On!!

Is this an AI image??? Very cool!! Marble--On!!

These have fooled me as being more vintage--love em!! Marble--On!!
